Saturday Night Feast

from £90.00

Raise a toast to the weekend with a laid-back evening feast in the barn at River Cottage.

The Saturday Night Feast at River Cottage HQ is a truly magical event and a fantastic opportunity to bring a group of friends and family together to celebrate. Join us for a sumptuous communal dinner in our 18th century threshing barn and share and delight in the very best local, seasonal and sustainable produce.

All pre-advised dietaries happily catered for

Collected by tractor at the top of the hill you will be transported down the track to our 65 acre farm nestled in the Axe Valley, complete with farmhouse, barns, livestock and produce gardens. Before dinner enjoy a local tipple or seasonal cocktail and relax in front of the open fire in the cosy yurt, or explore the abundant kitchen garden.

Once you are settled in our beautifully restored barn our Head Chef will give the story behind the four courses being served. We are internationally renowned for creating a constantly changing set menu inspired by what has been foraged, caught or picked from the kitchen garden that day; a menu which reflects the very best in seasonal and local ingredients. We regularly incorporate the latest recipes we are working on for books and TV shows, as well as featuring firm River Cottage favourites.

The garden and land team liaise closely with the kitchen team to grow, nurture and harvest the produce for our events. Anything additional we need is sourced from our excellent neighbour suppliers including Trill, Coombe Farm Organic and Haye Farms. In fact two of these farms are so local to us we can see them from our back step.

The dinner includes wine to begin your evening and our drinks list offers our own ale, cider and Elderflower Sparkling. There are also some local icons like Somerset Cider Brandy and the effervescent Castlewood Sparkling from the vineyard over the brow of the hill. At the end of the night the tractor will be on hand to take you back up the hill.

“A fantastic delicious four course dinner made with the best and freshest ingredients I have ever had. Lush! The evening just flew by and we didn't want it to end”Chezzerl, Trip Advisor

We regularly and happily cater for all allergies and dietary restrictions your party may have so please let us know when you book.
